A/C Help Please!!!
My 96 Buick Century's A/C would lose its charge after a month or so but worked fine during this time. I had the system checked with lead detector and my mechanic found a pin hole leak in the condensor. He wanted $500 to fix. Last weekend I added a can of freon and it was blowing ice cold air I then put a can of stop leak into the system per the instructions on the can. The car still blew ice cold arir. A couple of hours later I took the car for a ride and the A/C wasn't cold at all in fact it was warm
Did the stop leak maybe plug up the system? If so is there someway to get it unplugged short of taking the whole system apart?
Thanks,
Steve
